ca-uim-robot

CA Unified Infrastructure Management (CA UIM) is an Enterprise solution that enables organizations to monitor:

servers

applications

databases

networking services

network devices

private and public clouds

CA UIM offers the following monitoring configuration capabilities:

Local monitoring - CA UIM provides local monitoring, which allows a managed device to be monitored even when the device becomes temporarily disconnected from the rest of the management system. For example, in the event of a network outage.

Remote monitoring - CA UIM can also remotely monitor devices and applications. For example, UIM can act as a remote client in client-server environments.

SNMP monitoring - CA UIM can communicate with network devices using SNMP. In addition, UIM can receive and process SNMP traps.

This role will install the UIM Robot (or agent)

Requirements

This installation needs a local webserver to host the binary and config files, the directory name under which each component is stored is the checksum of each object.
